Trendy, contemporary contrast in the right location



Situated at the Taikoo Li Santilun, this contemporary Kengo-Kuma-designed space turns the concept of five-star accommodations on its head, with casually adorned staff and a lobbyless check-in.

Diverse dining options encompass Mediterranean and Chinese flavours, while space to lounge and socialise can be found at trendy, Bedouin-style cocktail bar.
